Overview of North Buckhead

North Buckhead apartments bridge the distance between glitzy-ritzy downtown style and secluded suburban serenity. This north-most neighborhood of Atlanta is more than first glance might reveal. Most will immediately notice its upscale malls, shining skyscrapers, and evening entertainment options. It’s only on closer inspection, however, that one finds that much of North Buckhead is heavily wooded hills and high-end homes. Talk about the best of both worlds!

North Buckhead became part of Atlanta in 1950. It quickly developed as a suburb, housing those escaping the city. Before that time, this part of Georgia was rural. Not much of the history of the area is known. Today, North Buckhead is an affluent part of Atlanta. Residents enjoy plenty of conveniences, but say the area is a little light on personality.
